The ZeFKo Studies in Peace and Conflict have found a new institutional home in Hamburg. Since February 2025, PD DR Hendrik Hegemann and Dr Hanna Pfeifer are the new Co-Editors-in-Chief. David Weiß will head the editorial office. We are glad that the leading academic journal in peace and conflict studies within the German-speaking world will be based at IFSH where it can be further strengthened and developed as a flagship journal within the discipline with national and international visibility.
ZeFKo publishes a broad range of articles from different theoretical and methodological traditions and offers a central forum for current research and discussion on all matters of peace, conflict and violence. It is interdisciplinary in orientation, includes contributions in German and English and secures its high academic standards through a policy of strict double-blind peer review. The journal is published on behalf of the German Association of Peace and Conflict Studies (AFK) with SpringerVS. The editors and the editorial office encourage all submissions and inquiries from the diverse areas of peace and conflict studies.
